Comment: Evobrutinib is a Bruton's tyrosine kinase Inhibitor discovered by Merck, that has clinical potential across multiple autoimmune conditions (including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis) [1]. it is an orally active, potent, and highly selective inhibitor with a covalent binding mode. The chemical structure is claimed as A250 in patent WO2012170976 [3].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Immunopharmacology Comments |
Evobrutinib is a selective BTK inhibitor that potently inhibits B cell receptor- and Fc receptor-mediated signaling and downstream activation/function of human B cells and innate immune cells (e.g. monocytes and basophils). It has therapeutic potential for the management of B cell-driven autoimmune conditions [2]. |
